(hopefully) CMI Style background 4 C&C (redesigned)

Very good job indeed. I really like this one!!

However I think there should be a shade on the left side wall of the house, given that the sunlight somes from behind. Just like the shadow cast on the grass, the wall itself should be darker on this side.

Also, from a user's perspective, it seems odd that there is no road leading to the castle-balancing-on-a-cliff on the horizon. I assume it's because they can't reach it from here, but that is very ambiguous to the player. You could place some sort of obvious obstacle in front of it, or just make it look less 'highlighted' (less saturated / a bit further away, etc.).

Other than that, I think the only thing left to touch would be ground detail, especially the paths. Other than that, I'm looking forward to seeing more!

Have fun

Done - Added Mean looking Spikes

I'd recommend making the sky more interesting

Done - I redid the clouds to make them more my own style and added a kind of glow to the sun and some color

Other than that, I think the only thing left to touch would be ground detail, especially the paths

Done- Added Texture to Path

even though it's supposed to look CMI, it wouldn't hurt to include some perspective. aight?

Hmmmm, I think the shadow casted from the house shouldn't cover up the grass and the (green) flower(?) on the lower left corner.

Its looking really cool. I like how its progressed.
Some things:
*Yeah as Gilbot said, the shadow shouldnt cover the grass at front.
*I dont know how your drawing this, but some parts look pretty blurry, like the trees in the foreground, and that annoys me.
* The clouds should be more white, unless you want them orange for some reason in your game.
* The mountans probably should continue more on the right to the end of screen
*More detail would be nice on the grass, as its a little plain.

Well, anyways, theres my thoughts. Good work.

The tree and grass are blurred because there in the foreground I i dont think I should draw attention away from where 'the action' is happening.

Anyhoo I'm working on an edit and will get back to yous ASAP.
